Retinal Imaging and Diagnostics:

Fundus photography involves capturing high-resolution images of the retina's surface using specialized cameras. These images are invaluable for identifying retinal abnormalities, such as tears, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration.

Fluorescein angiography is a technique where a fluorescent dye is injected into the bloodstream. As the dye circulates through the retinal blood vessels, a series of photographs capture its movement. This helps in identifying vascular issues like leakage or blockages, often seen in diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration.Indocyanine Green Angiography (ICGA) is similar but uses a different dye that fluoresces under infrared light. It's particularly helpful for visualizing deeper retinal layers, aiding in the assessment of conditions affecting the choroid.
